“When you live on your own and there’s nobody else calling, that phone call means an awful lot.'
A Northern Ireland-based veteran says his life has been transformed through support provided by the Royal British Legion.
When Roy needed a knee replacement months later, the RBL stepped up once more to get him safely to and from the hospital. Roy says he was blown away by the constant support provided: “Barely a week went by without her calling to check how I was…It was unbelievable. Whilst in service, Roy played rugby for his regiment as a prop. His success on the pitch even saw him join the Army Rugby Union team, taking part in games against the RAF.Following his time in the service, Roy has worked hard to be a community champion for both his hometown of Leeds and his community in Co Fermanagh.
